Straighterline material format (click counts)

I tried a couple of the 'free trial' courses, and they all came up with a separate window that required ridiculous amounts of clicking. One of the first topics had 79 pages. Some pages contained only a couple of sentences before requiring a click to get to the next page, and a wait while the next page loaded. This seems like an incredibly inefficient way to view the course material. Are they all like this? Or do they offer a PDF or something that has all the material on one page?

My plan would be to copy and paste all the material into another document so that finding answers (with a CTRL F) for quizzes would be easier. Would this be necessary, or would it be faster to just click back through all the many pages to find answers I don't know right off?

Would love suggestions on how to make this process easier.

It sounds like you're talking about the slide show presentations? There is also audio in those . I don't think there is a transcript option, but if there is, be sure you get both - the audio and slides are not the same.

EDIT: one more thing, I certainly don't know about all the classes, but in the ones my sons have done, the overwhelming majority of quiz content was from the book - which is an ebook, so you can find info easily. I won't tell you to skip the lectures.....but.......that's really your call.
